After the governor, the next in line would be the lieutenant governor. Following this, the law depends on the state. Usually, the line is the governor elect, then the lieutenant governor, and finally the Speaker of the Legislature.
If both the governor and lieutenant governor are out of state at the same time, the specific procedure for filling the office of governor would depend on the laws and regulations of the particular state. Generally, there are provisions in place that outline the order of succession, which might involve the next in line of succession, such as the president of the state senate or the speaker of the state house.
The list of succession if something happens to the governor would begin with the lieutenant Governor. If there is no lieutenant governor then it goes from the leader of the senate, the speaker of the house, the state Secretary, the State auditor, the state treasurer, and finally the attorney general are in line for governor.
treeible question terrible answer!
Order of succession.
presidential succession is the order in which the office of president is to be filled
Governors are not a part of the presidential order of succession. The new president appoints a new VP with the Senate's approval. The only time the order of succession kicks in is if the president and VP were to leave office (die, removed, etc.), then the Speaker of the House of Representatives would become president.
The Speaker Of The House
The Governor's Representative assumes the Governor's position in the order of precedence (he or she is representing, not acting as the Governor).
